SYNOPSIS
 

#include &#60;pcre.h&#62;


int pcre_get_stringnumber(const pcre *code,
 const char *name);
 
 
int pcre16_get_stringnumber(const pcre16 *code,
 PCRE_SPTR16 name);
 
 
int pcre32_get_stringnumber(const pcre32 *code,
 PCRE_SPTR32 name);

 
DESCRIPTION
 

This convenience function finds the number of a named substring capturing
parenthesis in a compiled pattern. Its arguments are:
<pre>
 code Compiled regular expression
 name Name whose number is required
</pre>
The yield of the function is the number of the parenthesis if the name is
found, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING otherwise. When duplicate names are allowed
(PCRE_DUPNAMES is set), it is not defined which of the numbers is returned by
pcre[16|32]_get_stringnumber(). You can obtain the complete list by calling
pcre[16|32]_get_stringtable_entries().
